### 4/5 — Lỗi PiP

*2025-08-31, version 1.0*

Đề nghị khắc phục
Thiết bị 11Pro iOS 18.5

### 3/5 — QUALİTY ADJUSTMENT

*2025-03-07, version 1.0*

Hello, I can't find the option to change the video quality on YouTube. This makes me sad. Can you help me solve this?

### 5/5 — Çok güzel

*2025-01-19, version 1.0*

Geliştirmeniz çok güzel keşke arkaplan daha gelişse mükemmel olur orjınal YouTube gibi

### 1/5 — Crashes / doesn’t seem to work

*2024-10-24, version 1.0*

Just downloaded this hoping it would at least work as an alternative solution, but it won’t even open. Just crashes about 3 seconds after loading / opening. Unfortunate.

### 5/5 — Crash app

*2024-04-06, version 1.0*

Fix lỗi crash app đi nhà phát hành

### 5/5 — Great app but no updates since release ;-;

*2024-03-30, version 1.0*

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

### 4/5 — Feature request: explain settings

*2024-02-09, version 1.0*

I cannot figure out how to enable background playback. I’ve tried lots of settings I thought it might be having to deal with background, bg, autoplay, etx

### 4/5 — Does what it says

*2024-01-29, version 1.0*

Just installed. I like the ability to watch my videos without ads! And PiP is working well. Developer: A few issues which I’m sure are hard to avoid with YouTube—I’ve gotten stuck when I forget I’m not using the YouTube app and when I select a share arrow I end up on a page with YouTube saying that I should get a newer version of a browse and offering links to Safari, Chrome, etc. At then bottom are two tabs. One is to YouTube and the other to Features. Features works but there is no way to get back to YouTube homepage. I can go to Studio but there is no way to back out. I had to uninstall and reinstall the app to get it to work again. I’m excited about this app and hope it will grow.

### 5/5 — Mükemmel uygulama
